Celiac.com 11/19/2018 - People with celiac disease cannot reliably determine whether they ate gluten or not based on symptoms, however severe those symptoms may be, according to research presented by Amanda K. Cartee, MD, of the Mayo Clinic, and her colleagues, at the American College of Gastroenterology Annual Meeting in Philadelphia.
Because there is presently no FDA-approved test to confirm gluten exposure, celiac patients commonly rely on the presence or absence of gastrointestinal or other symptoms as an indicator...

Celiac.com 11/17/2018 - This soup works great as a dinner starter. It also works great as a full meal when paired with a salad and some good gluten-free bread. Pair it with half a sandwich for a great lunch. The recipe works great if you happen to have leftover chicken in the fridge. If not, you can use rotisserie chicken or leftover holiday turkey.
Ingredients:

5 cups chicken broth
5 cups water
1 cup cream
1 medium onion, chopped
2 cups sliced f...

Celiac.com 11/16/2018 - The best part of being diagnosed with celiac disease is finding out what you or your child has so that you can get back in control and in a position to do something about it.

Most other blends are full of starches and other ingredients that just aren't very healthy.
Flour Farm, however, is made in a 100% gluten-free facility, and it contains only the following organic ingredients: Sweet white rice flour, brown rice flour, tapioca flour, almond flour...

Celiac.com 11/15/2018 - Gluten-free products, marketed as such, were largely unknown 20 years ago, but the gluten-free industry is set to reach an estimated $2.34 billion in sales by 2019. That’s more than double figures for 2014. The growth has been exponential.
What sets gluten-free foods apart from other culinary trends or diet fads is that they address a legitimate health concern that affects millions of people around the world.

I met with my GI for a colonoscopy (cancer screening) because I was 50 years old. My GI suggested getting an endoscopy and a celiac blood test as well since I was anemic and had been most of my adult life. I was shocked! I had taken iron tablets in the past, but my anemia always came back (iron-deficiency). I also have Hashimoto’s as well.
Within a few months on a gluten free diet my iron-deficiency anemia resolved. My enlarged thyroid and n...

I have Hashimoto's Thyroiditis and have been tested positive for Celiac Disease (Silent). I had anemia, but it has been resolved with iron tablets. I have no symptoms. It is very difficult for me to want to be gluten free.
